	  What Child Is This?  

1. 
          Em  D    G             D  
What Child is this, who, laid to rest,  
D#mEm     Am      B7  
On Mary's lap is sleeping?  
            Em D     G              D  
Whom angels greet with anthem sweet, 
         Em             Am            B7 
While shepherds watch are keeping?  
  
Chorus:  
   Bm    G        D    
  This, this is Christ the King,  
   D#m  Em       Am                  B7  
  Whom shepherds guard and angels sing:  
   Bm     G             D  
  Haste, haste to bring Him laud,  
  D#m Em   Am   B7      Em  
  The babe, the son of Mary.  
  
Why lies He in such mean estate  
Where ox and ass are feeding?  
Good Christian, fear; for sinners here  
The silent word is pleading.  

(Chorus 2) 
Nails, spear shall pierce him through, 
The Cross be borne for me, for you; 
Hail, hail the Word Made Flesh, 
The babe, the son of Mary! 


3. So bring Him incense, gold, and myrrh; 
Come, peasant, king, to own Him! 
The King of Kings salvation brings; 
Let loving hearts enthrone Him! 

*(Chorus 3 
Raise, raise the song on high! 
The virgin sings her lullaby. 
Joy! joy! for Christ is born, 
The babe, the son of Mary! 
  
  
So bring Him incense, gold, and myrrh,  
Come, peasant, king, to own Him;  
The King of kings salvation brings,  
Let loving hearts enthrone Him.  
(Chorus)
